Expert Witnesses in Your Divorce

Under equitable distribution laws in Florida, marital assets and debts
must be fairly distributed. The process to accomplish this distribution
is often complex and requires the use of experts to value the assets of
the parties. Having the right attorney means having the right experts
for your case, so it is important that you seek out a skilled Clearwater
divorce attorney that has excellent contacts with the right types of witnesses.

In some situations, the spouses can agree on the value of the assets. Then
the job of division is easy. But where it is confusing, or where there
is disagreement, valuing assets and debts requires the establishment of
the fair market value of the assets. For example, where there is stock
in a family corporation, or a professional practice, or an unincorporated
business, the valuation can be difficult.

Other examples where experts can help with valuation include the following:

Pensions

Profit sharing plans

Employee stock option plans

Real estate

Leases

Art

Furnishings

Jewelry

For all of the above, an expert witness can be called upon to provide an
objective valuation. Besides property, experts are frequently used to
make evaluations for custody and visitation. Clinical psychologists and
social workers may be called upon in these cases.

Other types of witnesses that may be used in divorce proceedings include
the following:

Certified public accountants (CPAs)

Actuaries

Geologists

Business brokers

Real estate appraisers

Real estate brokers
